Kandil Glass

Kandil Glass is a shareholding manufacturer of glass containers and drinkware, founded in 2005. Its production covers jars, bottles and cups for food and beverage packaging, together with containers for pharmaceutical and cosmetics applications and tableware such as mugs and tumblers. The food container portfolio includes forms and capacities suited to condiments, sauces, preserves, honey, jam, pickles, spreads and dry goods. Container designs incorporate closure finishes including TO 63, TO 66 and TO 82 formats, aligning the range with common packaged food requirements. The company serves markets across Africa, Asia and Europe.

Manufacturing is organized across three plants, with two container furnaces and a third facility for tableware. Plant 1 operates a 60-tonne-per-day furnace with an annual capacity of 45 million containers, while Plant 2 operates at 350 tonnes per day and 550 million containers annually. Plant 3 has an 80-tonne-per-day furnace dedicated to tableware. This glass operation follows a longer Kandil industrial lineage that began in 1865 with agricultural machinery, moved into boiler manufacturing in the early twentieth century, and focused on steel from 1960 before the glass company was established. Its stated development priorities center on technology, continuous innovation, collaboration and customer value.
